Exploring Blends & Colours – A Spinning Adventure with Vanessa Bjerreskov

Join Master Spinner Vanessa Bjerreskov for this full day class exploring blending and colour in your spinning. You will learn: the most common blending tools are and how they are used; how to evaluate and prepare different fibres for blending; different ways to blend and spin for texture, characteristics, colour, and repeatability; different fibre preparations and ways to spin them; and any other questions you have about the way fibres and colours come together in your yarn.
